That equation is not quite right. (And it's spelt pi, not pie.)Smartgurl said:Fc=m4(pie)rf^2
Is the equation Fc = m4(pi)^2rf^2haruspex said:That equation is not quite right. (And it's spelt pi, not pie.)
Yes.Smartgurl said:Is the equation Fc = m4(pi)^2rf^2
Would Fg = Fc?haruspex said:Yes.
Now what about BvU's point? You need to consider gravity.
Yes, but is that just a lucky guess or can you mount an argument to say it should be that?Smartgurl said:Would Fg = Fc?
So I could get mg = m4(pi)^2rf^2. Then solve for f?
I drew a diagram and I think that when the mass is at the top it will need the minimum Fc as gravity will help bring it down. Where at the bottom the Fc will have to overcome gravity to bring the mass back up. So gravity will be the only force acting on the mass and bringing it down when it is at the top.haruspex said:Yes, but is that just a lucky guess or can you mount an argument to say it should be that?

Thank you so much! Now it seems simple since I understand itharuspex said:Good.
Frequency refers to the number of oscillations or cycles that occur in a given time period. In the context of mass movement, it is the number of times an object moves back and forth in a specified amount of time.
The higher the frequency, the faster the mass will move. This is because a higher frequency means that more oscillations are occurring in a given time period, resulting in a greater movement of the mass.
The minimum frequency needed to keep the mass moving depends on various factors such as the mass of the object, the surface it is moving on, and the external forces acting on it. In general, a minimum frequency of at least one oscillation per second is needed to keep the mass in motion.
Resonance occurs when the frequency of an external force matches the natural frequency of an object. This results in a significant increase in the amplitude of the object's movement. Therefore, frequency plays a crucial role in resonance and can greatly impact the movement of objects.
Yes, the frequency of an object's movement can change depending on the external forces acting on it. For example, if a force is applied to an object, it will experience a change in its frequency of movement. Additionally, the frequency can also change if the mass of the object is altered.
